They were running upwards of 30 to 35 wpm or possibly faster. I had to 
listen to the call many times before I thought I had it right. Whether it 
was BY or only 6Y it was still my first contact outside of Canada and the US.

The web site for 6Y2A indicates they were using 4 K2/100's in the mix. I 
wonder if my QSO was with a K2. It would then make my first K2 to K2 
contact. I'll send them an e-mail and see what they say.


Cheers!
